I was able to convert the list format in the features section into prose. I was also able to give the prose sentence improvements. Geo g guy ( talk) 06:02, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
The article doesn't mention whether Tox is capable of communicating with other open-source audio or video conferencing systems, such Ekiga, or whether such compatibility is contemplated in the future. It would be too much to expect, though, for it to be able to communicate with Skype clients, since Skype is closed-source and proprietary. — Quicksilver T @ 18:26, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
I considered last changes made by Stqism inappropriate, since they were made mostly to cover his own tracks in this shady history with stolen money of Tox Foundation. Therefore, I undid his edits. Digital.Maniac ( talk) 06:38, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
It's pretty well known that Tox comes out of 4chan's /g/ (technology) board, but given the nature of the site I'm not sure how you'd verify that in a cite-able manner — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hatesdigimon ( talk • contribs) 00:19, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
I don't know how (I'm not an editor), but the repository should be changed - it points to a fork, and is presumeably made for purposes of advertisement. It does not point to the actual toxcore by irungentoo, but to a fork (c-toxcore) by someone else. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.4.89.211 ( talk) 18:49, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Considering that this article supposedly is about the Tox protocol, it is disappointing that it contains no information about the actual protocol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.127.31.113 ( talk) 07:48, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Consensus is that there is no primary topic, and that the article on the place in France should be moved to Tox, Haute-Corse. ( closed by non-admin page mover) BegbertBiggs ( talk) 22:53, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia needs reliable, secondary sources - see WP:RS. Github, blogs, and other self published stuff is not sufficient and has led to this article being stuffed with bloat and promotion. In particular, an editor with a conflict of interest absolutely should not be edit warring to keep in writing about themselves and/or their own work, especially not cited to their own websites.
